General description

Cell-permeable superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic and peroxynitrite scavenger. Protects endothelial cells in a dose-dependent manner (EC50 ~40 µM) against paraquat (2 mM). Inhibits the oxidation of Dihydrorhodamine 123 (Cat. No. 309825) by peroxynitrite, but does not scavenge nitric oxide (NO).

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a life-threatening disease characterized by obstructed pulmonary vasculatures. Current therapies for PAH are limited and only alleviate symptoms. Reduced levels of BMPR2 are associated with PAH pathophysiology. Moreover, reactive oxygen species, inflammation and autophagy have
